Went Camping at Neurum Creek Bush retreat on the weekend, stayed 3 nights with Hubby, myself and our 3 girls. We had a fantastic time, kids are really well catered for with the activities they put on for them, they had a movie on in the shack followed by a disco on saturday night, my oldest daughter (7yo) especially loved the disco. There is lots of walking you can do, a waterhole to swim in, bike tracks for the kids (about 3km i think it is) and we were lucky enough to be camped right across from a tree house which the kids loved. Dogs are allowed, we didn't take ours but they are pretty strict on them and you have to pay to take them. It is a little more expensive then other campsites however in my opinion well worth it. It was quite busy the friday and saturday, most people went home on sunday so sunday night we had the place pretty much to ourselves. Each site has a small fire ring and it is byo firwood or you can buy it. There is the Mt Mee state forest about a minute up the road, the sign says you need a 4b but we saw 2wd's driving thru. It flooded at easter weekend so the creek was flowing nicely and according to other campers everyone was flooded in. The camp grounds are beautifully maintained, management was lovely, very popular with kids, they were absolutely everywhere riding around on their bicycles. Best to avoid school holidays or long weekends if you don't like lots of other campers, it was quite busy when we went due to school holidays however we didn't feel too cramped in.

Thanks for the report - glad you have had a great time. I've often thought about heading there, but I've always thought it was aimed at kids, and as we don't have any have never bothered to go. How do you think "kid-free" people would enjoy it?

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt - then it's bloody hilarious!

hi amanda i would reccomend this place, as it's a great place to have a nice quite weekend & also is a good base camp so you can go exploring around the area. e.g vine yards,mt mee or even a game of golf at the very relaxed golf corse.

There were a few people there that didn't have kids and had a great time, plenty to do with or without them.

They have some great wine tasting events there at times. Just look at the website for details.

We are currently planning a music and camp oven cooking weekend during July where I will be demonstrating camp oven cooking on the Saturday afternoon and live bands Friday and Saturday night. Not on the website yet but will post it up when details are confirmed.

We were there the last weekend in March. Thought it would be quiet out of school holidays but nope - quite busy. Nice spot, it is better if you have been once or twice and know the sites that will suit you.

We went there again a few weeks ago for a weekend trip, took my sister and her partner and kids, it was there first time there. They loved it. It is fantastic for kids especailly in school holidays. The weekend we went was just an ordinary weekend, there were still a few people there but not as busy as school holiday time.

Been there many times. One of our favorite places. We can always count on having a good camping weekend at neurem creek. We're thinking of trying the campsites high up on the hill for the view next time.
